These agreements must establish mandatory provisions to preserve institutions' ownership rights in tax refunds and ensure equitable allocation of tax liabilities among group members. The proposal aims to enhance safety and soundness by preventing liquidity risks and legal disputes over tax assets, ultimately replacing the agencies' 1998 policy statement.
